My inspiration for this Tablescape~~ was my new Black & White
salt and pepper set that I purchased from Ross for $2.49.
I have six layers of dinnerware this time.
Maybe I went overboard this time. What do you think?
The ceterpiece is a combination
of white Roses with white Mums,
and white Hydrangeas.
I purchased my napkins at Stein Mart two days ago~~.
The colors go good with the dishes and placemats.
This is looking down at the place setting.
I did use my white flower plate! You all know me by now!
I purchased the black and white salad plates from Pier 1 Imports.
The little brown bowl will hold Soy Sauce.
Look to the right.
Lets light the candles and have a glass of wine.
I know you need to know whats for dinner!
Well this was easy! Take out from my favorate Japanese Restaurant.
# 1 ~ Hot & Sour soup.
# 2 Fried spring rolls.
# 3 Mango Chicken in garlic sauce.
# 4 Dessert Lemon Ice.
I hope you all come back!
Please take a moment to comment. Thank you so much!
I am linking up with these Bolgs for there linky parties.

There is no such thing as going overboard. It looks great!
I love the drama of this setting but I especially love the kitteh's!! Nicely done. Hugs. Tammy
This is a wonderful tablescape...black & white is a classic.
And no, I don't think you went overboard. If you have 6 layers of coordinating dishes, then why not?
Beautiful and elegant. I love the new napkins and dishes. SteinMart is a great store. xo,
Look so elegant and nice!! gloria
Love black and white!

I am impressed you could do that many layers in black and white. Great job! Love the S&P shakers!
Isn't it fun combining all the layers! They all look great together. The napkins are a perfect pick up! Love the little cloche dessert stands!
Very elegant table decoration dear Diane, nice work and beautiful photos!
Have a nice day, kisses:)
That is a stunning table and your menu fits right in with the dramatic presentation.
This tablescape is one of my all-time favs! I love the patterns of the napkins and salad plates, and the added texture of the bamboo placemats and wine decanter. Your salt and pepper oriental kitty cats are the perfect touch!

This looks so great -- love it!
Black and white is so classic and versatile. If I had that many beautiful dishes in B&W, I'd do six layers too! I like the Asian feel you've created by using those woven placemats. Perfect for the food you ordered in!

Just so beautifully done Diane. You are getting so professional like on your table scapes. You should see if your local department stores will let you set up their tables, you could do it. Congrats on the feature over at Marty's!
It looks beautiful! I love black and white combos. They are always classy!
Great job!
This is gorgeous! Love the black and white!
Diane, what a fun tablescape! I particularly love those pretty napkins! Just a great look.
In addition to admiring your handiwork, I want to thank you for your sweet words of condolence on my blog. I appreciate them more than you know. It's been a rough go this summer, but hopefully, things will begin to settle down soon. I'm trying to blog a little because I miss all of you so much, and I didn't want one more day to pass without thanking you for your kindness.
Hope all is well in your world!
Sending warm hugs your way...
XO,
Sheila

Hi, sugar... just dropping back by on my Tablescape rounds. Still loving your napkins.
I thought I would put up a tablescape tonight, and I'm exhausted from visting! I guess I'm out of blogging practice. LOL!
Happy Tablescape Thursday to you...

The new S&P add just the right touch of whimsy to a sophisticated black and white tablescape. Love the napkins; I'll try to make a run to SteinMart tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous design. Cherry Kay

Love your layers -- the black and white is so elegant. Love those napkins!
You know I love your table in black and white! It's fabulous!
Thanks for linking to Potpourri Friday and helping to make it a success! I appreciate your participation!
Very smart and sophisticated.. when can I come round and what are we having for dinner ??
:-))
I say any excuse to buy more dinner-ware is a good one.You just need more cupboards hahaha!! I have that problem sometimes :-))
This is just gorgeous and so elegant! I love black and white anytime. What a fun oriental themed table with a twist.
I have forgotten about Stein Mart. I need to head there (it is about 40 minutes away, but I can't forget about that!) I love your take out meal. We do that too sometimes! Fabulous, wish I had some of that Mango Chicken!!!
Thanks for your sweet comments on my giveaway. I would love it if you posted me on your sidebar. You can throw in an extra comment telling me you did that and I will count it!!!!
Lovely my friend. The cats are a perfect touch too. Chinese is my favorite take away food. I love egg drop soup and cashew chicken. Hugs and wishes for a joy filled weekend.
Oh my goodness!!! First, I LOVE everything. The napkins are just fabulous!! I LOVE the layering of the plates because there are just enough different textures that is looks just perfect and so coordinated. LOVE the placemats too. I think I just love it all and am inspired to try something like it! Thanks for stopping by!! I just saw that you would like to live here in the Smokies...let me know if you are ever in this area:-)
Thank you for linking up to the Thursday favorite things blog hop. Big Hugs!
Black and White always classic and yours is for sure. I did a Black and White Christmas section in my shop last year and it went pretty well. Thanks for being a follower of, My Old Historic House, and I am your newest as well. Richard
I love the pop from the napkins!! Just beautiful!
Thank you for stopping by 'my place'. :) Believe it or not the girly LOVES cowboy boots and has two pair, unfortunately, with the problems with her foot, they hurt her to wear them and that is one of the reasons she wanted her surgery...so she can wear her 'clicky boots' again! ;)
Have a great weekend!
Great table. Isn't it neat how one little purchase, like your salt and pepper shakers, can spur on such an imaginative table. I saw those plates at Pier One. They've got great texture.
Great to have you be a part of Seasonal Sundays.

I think black and white is so elegant. Lovely!
very very nice looking table, I love the B&W and just adore that flower plate. Takeout has never looked so good. Thank you for inviting me in.
Hugs,
Ellen
Beautiful! A black and white theme are winners every time in my mind.
What a dramatic tablescape you have set up Diane! I love the Asian touches with the pretty white soup bowls and flower plate and the little soya sauce bowls... so adorable! The black bamboo place mats set the perfect backdrop for this elegant tablescape! I love those pretty mats! Your rattan wrapped carafe carries the theme so beautifully in this Asian inspired tablescape. Dinner sounds sooo tempting..thanks for sharing with us. Happy Sunday to you~Poppy
